Monday, September 7, 2015 The ever-popular Gaithersburg Labor Day Parade returns to the streets of Olde Towne on Monday, September 7, 2015, at 1 p.m. Now in its 77th year, this rain or shine event includes ethnic dance groups, antique cars and fire trucks, clowns, high school marching bands, and an assortment of community groups, equestrian units, and more. During the parade, free parking will be available in the Olde Towne garage, located at the corner of Olde Towne and Summit Avenues. Accessible parking for those with disability placards or plates is available behind the Victor Litz store on the north side of Diamond Avenue, and behind the Shell station on Summit Avenue. A shuttle bus will also be available from the Lakeforest Shopping Center transit station to Gaithersburg Elementary School beginning at noon. Are you interested in participating? The City is looking for community groups and other organizations to march in the parade. This is a great way to be involved in the community and to get your group noticed, plus your unit might even win a special award. Note that participation in the Labor Day Parade by groups or organizations other than City of Gaithersburg officials, departments or committees does not constitute City of Gaithersburg endorsement. Organizations and individual volunteers are also needed to distribute program booklets, assist with parade line up duties and participate as characters in the parade. The Labor Day Parade Participant, Politician and Sponsorship registration forms are available now under Related Documents. All registration forms must be returned with a parade participant agreement.
